These are our first homegrown white nectarines. They’re a variety called Arctic Star. We have a tiny sampling of plums, peaches, and nectarines coming in. This batch was mildly sweet, but the first fruits aren’t usually expected to have that wow factor. We’re hoping that as the tree continues to mature, our enjoyment will elevate, as it produces the low acid, super sweet flavors that are to be expected with this variety .

Some of our plums on the other hand… oh they taste like candy. I’ll be sure to share those with you too (if I’m able to contain myself and snap a picture before I eat them).

Say hello to a lovely shop named Addiah. Virginia, the owner of the shop, says Addiah is derived from a Hebrew name meaning adornment or ornament from God, which she found to be perfectly fitting as she sells lovely things that adorn the home and body. Virginia is a believer and advocate in loving what you own and encouraging others to surround themselves with that which they love. She believes the things in our lives should be beautiful, encourage us to live well, and inspire us. She started Addiah after she graduated from college and as time went on, she became increasingly more passionate about finding and celebrating awesome designs and the people making them. She wants to use her shop as a way to encourage people to live their lives well and be surrounded with beauty.
Some of her personal favorites in the shop are the wandering robe, cascade necklace, the postmug, and these simple but stunning dog leashes. I have a few of my own favorites which include the lace necklace, the Sky High, and these hand woven napkins.
